Patricia Kopatchinskaja & Sol Gabetta - Sol & Pat (2021) [Hi-Res]

France's contribution to the genre of the Baroque solo concerto seems late and tentative, but it is fascinating to see how French composers managed to combine Italian robustness and French elegance in their works. Johannes Pramsohler and Ensemble Diderot take a journey to the origins of this hybrid form, presenting here the very first violin concertos by French composers, with two world-premiere recordings of concertos by Jean-Marie Leclair and André-Joseph Exaudet at the heart of this virtuosic and exciting programme.
